Edit your ~/.cabal/config file. Look for the line (probably commented out) that says documentation: False. Change that line to documentation: True and uncomment it. Now when you build projects with cabal install documentation will also be built and saved locally.

Look around a little more in that same config file and you'll find things options like doc-index-file, docdir, datadir, prefix, etc that allow you to configure where the documentation is stored.
